Sep 3 -- On “With All Due Respect,” Lawrence Lessig, Harvard law professor and political activist, discusses his potential run for the Democratic presidential nomination. If he’s able to raise $1 million by Labor Day, he says he wants to campaign to be a “referendum president,” so as to fix “the corruption of this political system.” Asked about who would be an appropriate running mate, Lessig says Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren are “the kinds of people who could rally the party enough to actually win.”
